SSL configuration in tomcat and apr

Question

I'm facing a problem setting up my tomcat with apr native lib, I have the following:

Tomcat: 7.0.42
Java: 1.7.0_40-b43
OS: Centos 6.4 (2.6.32-358.18.1.el6.i686)
APR: 1.3.9
Native lib: 1.1.27
OpenSSL: openssl-1.0.0-27.el6_4.2.i686

My server.xml looks like:

...
<Listener className="org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener" SSLEngine="on" />
...
<Connector port="8443" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
SSLEnabled="true" maxThreads="150" scheme="https" secure="true"
clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS"
SSLCertificateFile="/tmp/monitoringPortalCert.pem"
SSLCertificateKeyFile="/tmp/monitoringPortalKey.pem"
SSLPassword="hide"
/>
...

I compiled the native lib as follow:

./configure --with-apr=/usr/bin/apr-1-config --with-ssl=yes --prefix=$CATALINA_HOME 
make && make install

The APR is loaded ok:

Oct 06, 2013 7:55:14 PM org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener init
INFO: Loaded APR based Apache Tomcat Native library 1.1.27 using APR version 1.3.9.

But I'm still having this error:

SEVERE: Failed to initialize the SSLEngine.
org.apache.tomcat.jni.Error: 70023: This function has not been implemented on this  platform

Could you guys help to understand where my error is? What am I missing?

Thanks in advance for your support.

Thanks for the comment Mark, below it is the ./configure / make && make install outcome: ./configure

It seems everything is fine, but the error is not self-explanatory

Answer 1

I also faced exact issue. Problem was it was not detecting correctly installed native library.

When You install native library, before that install these first.

For Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install libapr1-dev libssl-dev

These libraries are required instead of libtcnative. After they have been successfully installed, configure your app n this manner.

sudo ./configure --with-apr=`which apr-1-config` --with-java-home=$JAVA_HOME --with-ssl=yes --prefix=$CATALINA_HOME

Here CATALINA_HOME is your tomcat home that you have set or directly use /opt/apache_tomcat_version

Then

sudo make
sudo make install

After installation is finished , it will update you that libraries have not been put in tomcat's lib folder.

Configure your setenv like this

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/apache-tomcat-7.0.42/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Restart your tomcat, you're all Done!

Cheers

Answer 2

Go back and check the results of ./configure as it look like the OpenSSL libraries have not been found.
